The FastDay Forum

Hi my name is Alastair and I am new to the forum. I was wondering if anyone is doing a low carb version of the 5:2 diet or if this is possible ?

You could do worse than try this thread:

chat-f12/2014-low-carbers-tent-t10527.html

And welcome to the forum - it's a brilliant place. Lot's of techie info on the 5:2 lab thread, including low-carb. I've a fair bit on low-carb and veggie on my thread (see signature).

All the best, FatDog

Welcome to the forum allybally! Lots of members are doing low-carb in conjuction with 5:2, if you look at the similar topics at the bottom of this page you will see some prior discussions on this subject. There is also a "low-carb tent" that you are welcome to join-in. Lots of tips, advice, encouragement and support here. Browse around (start with the Newbie tips, FAQ bubbles near top of page), ask questions and join in!

Edit: Ah, I see FatDog has the low-carb tent link for you.

Welcome from a fellow low carber. I'm not veggie like FatDog so between us we can help you out and there are loads more of us too. I blog (panel underneath my photo) quite a bit on my low carb efforts (although last week was something of a blip).

I think low carb is a perfect partner to fasting as it keeps the hunger pangs at bay.

Good luck

I will second that as a low carb carnivore. Welcome @allybally.

Welcome @allybally you've been directed to a couple of good threads there, I'm low carbing now alongside my 4:3 days and the health benefits I'm now receiving far out way the daily loss of carb food, plenty advice, tip, help, recipes, and support from all the members. Good Luck Sue

Hi. I've been eating LCHF since 2007, and have no plans of stopping that now as I'll implement the 5:2 in my diet
